POE SAFES RAILWAY TEAYEL. The Public Demands More Adequate Protection From Injury. St Paul Pioneer Press. It is safe to say that the commercial in stinct is at the bottom of most railroad accidents in this country. There is so persistent a pressure upon superintend ents to keep down expenditures that those who see the need of Improvements likely to cost a great deal hesitate to Insist on them. On a good many railroads there is a tendency to try to get along with too few or too cheap employes. In the first case overwork or neglect' and In the sec ond Incompetence often produce disaster. Finally there is natural resistance to rad ical changes such as the Institution of automatic block signals, involving "costly outlays for plant and Increased operat ing expenses, when on the whole-the pres ent system,has worked well, and when the chances of accidents are remote. , Nevertheless.; It Is a. serious question whether--public- opinion, will- not demand radical changes, no matter -whether stock- LOST ALL Hi WHEAT Bank CashiervTells Use He " Made of Stolen Funds.

And to a great extent the demand would be Justified, provided whatever new sys tem were proposed were really much safer than the prevailing system. For no rail road or any other concern has a right to neglect any reasonable precaution for tho safety of its. patrons merely to save money. Nor would many railroads claim such a right. The difference of opinion would probably concern what constituted reasonable precautions, and that would resolve Itself Into a technical discussion of the comparative merits of different M-stems of Operation under various con ditions.

St Louis Globe-Democrat -Time out of mind It has been tho uni versal supposition that tho soil and cli TOate of Ireland are fatal to snakes of every kind: that. In short, such reptiles do not and cannot exist there. Evidence to the contrary, at least In a rather 11m Ued sense. Is furnished by the following Dews Item, which I have clipped for the benefit of your readers from a recent Issue of "the Dublin Freeman, an excellent au thority on Irish matters: ; "On Sunday a number of children play ing In the garden of their father's house In Ranelagh came upon a live snake quietly and contentedly reposing in the grass. The children, astonished and tcr rifled by the discovery, ran to alarm their father. This -gentleman, piloted to the f pot by the children, was himself aston ished to find that their alarm was well founded. The snake was carefully se cured and placed la a tin box, and after some consultation between the gentleman in question and a number of his frlenda the reptile was conveyed to the zoological gardens and deposited with the superin Tenaent it is a. ring snaice. and was found principally In England. It was per fectly harmless and lived on worms and Insects of various kinds. Several of these reptiles have recently been found In Ind iana."

Rose said he was alone in his alleged speculation, and that bis use of the batik's money began about six years ago. He said that about three years ago, when the loss had reached only $20,000, an auditing committee was appointed to go over the bank's books. Rose had hoped that his shortage would be discovered then, but at the end of a week or so of Investiga tion, the committee reported everything satisfactory with the bank's affalra Rose declared that he had lived within hla salary of 5125 a month, and had itot got a cent of the money lost to the bank by his speculation. When the shortage had reached $20,000, Rose said ie knew that he would have to replace that sum, and, seeing' no other way of doing so than by speculating, he continued to do so until the amount reached $187,000.

AH of the entire sum of $187,000, Rose declares, was lost In grain speculation in Chicajjo. His willingness '-for a speedy trial and Imprisonment he said, was to relieve his mind of the worry that he had undergone; also his desire to be sentenced and. to serve his term and afterward be gin life anew. Chicago Tribune. WhyVshould the Department of Com merce and Labor Investigate the fire loss of the United States? Read the following tables and you will know. The fire loss Is Chicago was: 1SSS to 1S90, J10.SOO.O0OJ 1S96 to 1900. S19.O00.00O; 1897 to 190L $21,200,000. Think of this waste. r The fire Insurance premiums were: 1S91, $4,250,000; 1S96, $5,250,000; 1901. $7,150,000. Meanwhile our municipal expenditure for the maintenance of tho fire departs ment has increased only about 10 per cent Compare an Increase of about 10 per cent for fire protection with an Increase of moro than 90 per cent in fire loss! Now, transfer your attention to the rec ords of the mutual fire Insurance, com panies in the East Pick out for Illustra tion, the company managed by Edward Atkinson. The loss per $100 insured was: 1850 to 18S0. 21.S cents; 1SS1 to 1SG5, 17.27 cents; 1S9S to 1901, 3.77 cents. The properties Insured were most of them extremely hazardous risks. They were factories.' They contained compll cated machinery and highly Inflammable materials. They were of flimsy construc tion. 'How was their fire loss so spectac ularly reduced? By systematic inspection, by automatic sprinklers, by the compilation of scientific experience tables. In a word, by paying Attention to fire loss rather than to fire Insurance premiums. ' - Fire protection engineers" have for years suspected that what was being done In companies like Mr. Atkinson's coulde. be Imitated all over the United States. Fire protection must become less of n business and more of a science. Every year $150,000,000 of property in the United States goes up In flame. What a torch for science! Every year Chicago pays a tax of over $9.CttI) to maintain a fire department and an underwriters' as sociation. Every year Chicago's fire loss expands, while Mr. Atkinson's fire Joss contracts. Why? Only a full investiga tion covering the whole United States can telL When a pestiferous insect begins to de stroy crops, the Federal Government chases it from Oregon to Florida and ex plores the world for a parasite to tac .to Its tail. The proper parasite for fire is science. How far the science of fire in surance has gone at the present time may be surmised from. the recent statement of a famous firo insurance expert to the ef fect that "it would be difficult to deter mine what intelligent end the records of tho companies serve at this time that would not be as well served by a Roman soothsayer's chicken gizzards." , In aii age of science our fire loss is in creasing.

Inquires Into., Death ot wnuaKer nngni. I You Will Have To Hurry ! ONLY 2 DAYS MORE OF OUR GREAT i CLEARANCE LONDON, Jan. 2S. "Suicide" was the -verdict passed by the Coroner's jury' to day in the closing chapter-of the tragedy of Whi taker .Wright His death was caused by poisoning by cyanide of potas sium. The Jury found Wright was sane andjtbat there was not the slightest doubt his death was due to a most deliberate suicide. From the evidence at the inquest It was shown Wright had determined to take his own life In the event of an adverse ver dict, and that ho went to court wlthr & cyanide tablet In his possession, while In his hip pocket was a new revolver, fully loaded and even cocked. After the sentence Wright went to the lavatory while the tipstaff in attendance on him remained outside. There he swal lowed the tabloid and,- returning to the consulting-room, washed down the poison with whisky and water and died. Ono of the last things Wright said was, "This is British Justice." The small Coroner's court at Westmin ster was so crowded that Whltaker Wright, Jr., son of the dead man, had to stand, up throughout the proceedings. -He and other witnesses In the main bore out the facts "already cabled. Neither the son nor the dead man's closest friends, so they testified today, ever heard Wright even intimate that he contemplated sui cide. His solicitor, George Lewis, Jr.. said the deceased all along implicitly believed he would be acquitted, or that, at the worst. he only contemplated a disagreement of the Jury. Even after hl3 sentence. Wright showed only indignation. In talking with Mr. Lewis, Mr. Eyre, one of his sureties, and Mr. Waters, the accountant of the London& Globe Corporation, Wright said: "I really think I am the most composed of you all." As regards an appeal, Wright said he would do exactly as he was advised. Aked if some one had not better tele phone the verdict to Mrs. Wright, Wright said: "No; there is plenty of time for that Taking out his watch and ' chain, Wright handed them to Mr. Eyre, saying: "I shall not have any use for this In that place," meaning the prison. "I give Jt to you, Eyre. Keep It for me." This was all that occurred. After Wright had taken the pol3on, holding a glass in his hand and still sip ping its contents, he said: "Waters, give me another cigar." Mr. Waters took ud Wright's cigar case. which was lying on the table, and Wright deliberately cut the end off a cigar and struck a match. Just as he was going to light the cigar, Wright flung the match from him, sank back unconscious and died without uttering another word.- The doctor who was called in to attend Wright said he had not detected any smell or sign Indicating poison, but Drs Frey- burger, who conducted the post-mortem examination testified that from every or- ean of the body exUaed the peculiarly pen etrating "smell of prusslc "acid, and. that there was not the slightest doubt that Wright's death was due to that poison. The deceased had not suffered from any other disease, there were no lesions of the brain, and the heart was healthy, though twice the normal size. It transnlred at the inquest that Wright was only searched after bis death. A tan- lold found in his pocket did not appear to bo poisonous. The revolver was-discov ered by the police after the law court of ficials had previously searched wrignt. The Coroner commented on this and in dicated that action probably would bo taken by ithe higher authorities.

It's a "catchy" saying, calculated to raise a laugh, but like famous phrase about thorns, has no merit when thoroughly analyzed. The carrying of a cane by a man who Is not required to use It In walking has a strong tendency to make him walk up rightly, with shoulders thrown back.
